Former West Ham Defender Tomas Repka Sentenced To Jail For Revenge Porn Attack On Ex-Wife
Former West Ham star and Czech retired footballer, Tomas Repka, has been found guilty of revenge porn attacks on his ex-wife and sentenced to six months in prison.
According to The Sun, the 44-year-old, who played for West Ham between 2001 and 2006, was sentenced at a court in Brno, Czech Republic on Thursday.
He was found guilty of advertising the sexual services of his ex-wife, Vladka Erbova, on the internet without her knowledge. The retired footballer also included the victim’s phone number on ads.
His current partner, TV presenter Katerina Kristelova, was also hit with a £1,750 fine for playing a part in the attack against Repka’s ex-wife.
Ms. Erbova said: ‘I collapsed when I found out who had done it. I could not sleep. ‘I needed to see a psychiatrist, and I am going into therapy.’
The former footballer has apologized for the wrongdoing and will appeal the sentence so a judge will now decide if he should spend six months behind bars.
Repka said: ‘I’m sorry – it was wrong of me. But my relationship with my ex-wife was not good.I wasn’t able to see my son, and the situation escalated.’
